The headrests are leaned too far forward, pushing my head forward. Could not get a comfortable seating position. I had a headache and my neck hurt after about 10 minutes. It was even worse in the passenger seat. see full Subaru Legacy review |

2008 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
not enough leg room see full Toyota 4Runner review |
2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
This is a vehicle designed for people 5 fett 11 inches and under - no two ways about it. If you are 5 feel 11 or over you will not enjoy this truck. see full Toyota 4Runner review |

The consequence of reducing overall height while maintaining trail worthy obstacle clearance is a relatively low to floor seating position more attune to sedans. Seats are comfortable though even for a big framed person. see full Toyota 4Runner review |
2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Seat position low to floor leaves you sitting with a knee high position. Seats itself are comfortable, but there is no space for your feet under the front seats. All floor surfaces are almost flat though considering it truck roots. see full Toyota 4Runner review |
